Well, it has been a long time since we blogged...instead of trying to catch you all up with 5 months of details...we will just hit some recent happenings...
The Fall Semester was incredibly busy and rewarding...we ran lots and lots of trips with students. This is a great way to meet a bunch of them and allow them to glimpse the Gospel. Those that are willing to engage, keep coming back. The Fall is a time to sow broadly and invite students to our small group Bible Studies.
The Winter semester is more focused on going deeper with our core students and we also run a few trips designed to sow broadly. We recently ran a trip up Camels Hump (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camel's_Hump_(Vermont)#Hiking_Camels_Hump)...it was spectacular.
There was so much snow everywhere...
After hiking up in snow-shoes there is only one way down...
Spending time with our students is HUGE in their lives...this is when we go deeper and bond through shared experiences. This bonding is what allows them to feel free to share the hard stuff in their lives and accept our input. Don't you find this to be true in your own lives as you interact with your kids or spouse or friends?
